Discover the Art and Science of Building a Successful EFT Business
Are You Out There Helping People With Tapping, Changing The World One Person At A Time, Yet You Still Aren't Meeting Your Financial Goals?
You're out there, working hard, doing your best, trying to succeed as a practitioner, but your practice is not where you thought it would be. Perhaps you are completing your training and you want to make sure that your practice starts off with a bang and you are looking for some help. The problem is that many of the courses and success coaches out there don't really understand the unique problems that you face as an EFT coach. Do they know about the legal aspects of an EFT practice? Do they teach you how to choose your niche market and why that is so critical to your success? Do they walk you through how to put yourself out there authentically and stand head and shoulders above the mass of healers and coaches that are competing for your clients?
We've Been There!
But They Moved On! Despite the huge losses, they had a few things going for them:
1. They had both built successful businesses in the past.
2. They got crystal clear about what made them happy.
3. Most importantly, they knew EFT and believed they could conquer anything!
Just Two Years Later….
They bought a new home and office space with a view of the water, their workshops started filling, they created a number of highly acclaimed products that sell while they sleep, they created a work schedule with clients of 3 and 1/2 days a week, and now easily earn a healthy income while making a big impact in the world.
As they went to EFT conferences, they talked to many EFT coaches who wanted to know how did they manage to pull it all off? What they found was that many EFT practitioners were brilliant at tapping but they just didn't have the business experience or marketing skill-sets to succeed and as a result, struggled to turn their passion into profit.
They heard horror stories about how many "internet marketing experts" were just dead wrong when they tried to apply their generic marketing programs to their EFT business. Practitioners became frustrated and overwhelmed by the gurus who assumed that they could easily implement the technology necessary to put their suggestions into place.
EFT coaches from around the world began asking for their help. As a result, they built the EFT Mastering Business Acumen Program to help people just like you.
"This is a good foundation-building program for anyone who has never started a business. It gives you a path to take that is focused, the information you need to get started and tapping partners to support you along the way! I saved oodles of researching time. Starting a business by yourself can be a lonely, daunting process. The support from tapping partners, group's private forum, and the Q & A calls was extremely helpful and what is missing for many who attempt to create a viable EFT practice."
Christine Hunt ,Weight Loss and Body Image expert at www.huntforhopewellness.com

The second level is psychological - of the mind, of the heart. For couples who fall in love and then get married, their experience of sex goes a little deeper than the physical level. Their sex is at the heart level; it reaches the psychological depth. But because of the repetitiveness, this also reverts to the physical level after a while and becomes mechanical. The institution of marriage that has developed in the West over the last two hundred years takes sex to the psychological level. And this is why the societies in the West are in a chaos.
The reason for this is that you cannot rely on the mind. Today the mind desires one thing; tomorrow it will ask for something else. It wants one thing in the morning and something else in the evening. What it feels now will be totally different from what it felt only moments ago.
You may have heard that Lord Byron, before he finally got married, had been intimate with at least sixty to seventy women. But even as he was coming out of the church after his wedding, arm-in-arm with his new bride, the church bells still ringing, candles still burning, the friends attending the marriage still there, he saw a beautiful woman passing by. He was transfixed by her beauty, and for a moment he forgot his new wife, his just solemnized wedding. But he must have been a very honest man, because as he got into the carriage with his bride he said to her, "Did you notice? A strange thing happened just now. Until yesterday, before we were married, I was worried as to whether I would really be able to catch you or not - you were the only woman on my mind - but now, when I actually am married to you, I just saw a pretty woman on the side of the road as we came down the church steps, and I forgot you for a moment. My mind started racing after that woman; a thought crossed my mind, 'I wish I could have that woman!'"
The mind is so fickle. So those who wanted societies to be more orderly and stable did not allow sex to reach to the psychological level; they made an endeavor to halt it at the physical level. They said, "Go for marriage, not for love. If love grows out of marriage, fine; otherwise, be things as they may."
Stability is possible on the physical level, on the psychological level it is very difficult. But the experience of sex is deeper on the psychological level, and therefore the experience of sex in the West has been more profound than in the East. Whatever the psychologists of the West, from Freud to Jung, have written about sex, relates to this psychological level of sex. But the sex I am talking about is of level three, which up to now has not been born in the East nor in the West. That third level of sex is of the spiritual level.
There is a kind of stability on the physical level because the body is material. There is also a kind of stability on the spiritual level, because on the level of spirit there simply is no change ever: all is calm there; all is eternal there. In between these two is the level of the mind where change exists. Mind is unsteady, mercurial. It changes fast.

My girlfriend made some zucchini relish using the recipe out of a Ball canning book. We had looked at reviews of the recipe online and it seemed to be well liked. The reviews said that the relish was a little thin and that you might need to drain some liquid off of it when you open it. Ours however turned out thicker. It's actually the perfect thickness for using as it does not make my bread soggy. We have not opened any of the jars and just ate the leftover we had stored in the fridge. All the jars sealed properly and where processed according to the directions. S I was just wondering if being to thick will cause a problem with making them safe to eat? I know that the thickness has to do with the heat penetrating all the way to the middle and want to be sure these are safe to eat. I could probably post a picture over the weekend of how thick it is if that would help. There is really no liquid that could be drained from ours you would probably have to squeeze liquid out of it. |
Follow-Up Postings:
From your description it does sound overly dry as it should normally be sloshy, free moving in the jars with liquid clearly visible. Most likely the jars were over packed with solids and not enough liquids. Is it less than 24 hours old? If so I would suggest making up some additional brine from the recipe and re-heating, re-jarring adding 1-2 additional jars to the count and reprocessing. If more then 24 hours old then it is too late to re-process. It then becomes your choice to keep it or not. It is probably still safe to eat because of the vinegar but there is no assurance of safety for long term shelf storage. How many jars? Can they be stored in the fridge and used with 3 months? Dave |
- Posted by Moms_Kitchen none (My Page) on Fri, Aug 9, 13 at 18:44
Actually, I think it would be fine. If you followed the recipe and had the correct amount of ingredients in it, it is fine. My Ball Complete cookbook recipe for Zesty Zucchini Relish doesn't mention anything about pouring off liquid. In fact, it encourages you to salt the zucchini and squeeze it out to draw off as much liquid as possible, It says it should have the consistency of a "thin storebought relish". Happy canning! |
Mine is defiantly not sloshy or free moving in the jar. It's not really dry but you can tip the jar over and the relish barley moves at all. Defiantly past the 24 hour mark now. Sounds like eating this could be iffy? |
Sounds like eating this could be iffy? It might be. As I said above it is probably still safe to eat because of the vinegar used but we can't know that for sure. It sure doesn't sound as if it has the consistency of "thin store bought relish" which always has free liquid in the container much less the recommended consistency of "clearly visible liquid". Personally I would pitch it. But that is just my opinion. Dave |
I think I will pitch it and make some more. Better safe then sorry. The relish is very good but not worth dying over!!! |

LUDHIANA: Author and journalist Jack London said, "Show me a man with a tattoo and I will show you a man with an interesting past.'' London's words may not hold true for the rapidly popularized body art as every other youngster is either getting inked or giving it a thought.
But, the tattoos inked on international basketball player Talwinderjeet Singh Sahi's arms and chest sure give an insight to his past, that he carries along, with his successful present.
"My father is no more with us and my elder brother stays abroad, but they are always with me in form of these tattoos,'' said 'TJ' Sahi, 25. He started missing his father, Baljinder Singh Sahi, after he passed away in 2006 as people around him would constantly talk of his demise. Sahi then decided to get his father's face and his name inked on his left arm and got it done in Ludhiana.
The Ludhianvi lad then went on to get his brother's face inked on his chest in 2008 as he had settled in USA in 2001. Having started his quest on the court with elder brother Harsimran, it was but natural for Sahi to miss his presence, as he progressed in the game he learnt with his brother and started playing in the Indian team.
The permanent tattoos cost him Rs 10,000 each and have inspired many others who got their family members inked on their bodies, said Sahi.
The Gurdev Nagar resident also has a panther with a basketball inked on his right arm. "I feel like a panther when I enter the court,'' said Sahi, adding "These tattoos don't let me feel lonely and keep my morale high as I carry my icon and inspiration along.''
"People go for animals or other complex designs, but I had a different purpose when I got inked,'' said TJ, who will soon get his mother engraved on his body.
"She loves me a lot and her blessings are always with me. With this one, I will always be in the company of my entire family,'' said the basketball icon.

Renowned visual artist and educator Riva Lehrer has teamed up with brilliant cartoonist and graphic memoirist, Alison Bechdel in the new short film, "The Paper Mirror: Drawing Alison Bechdel."
The tenderness of black women growing in self-love and self-possession is rare in modern cinema. If we are young, we are exploited (see: Precious) if we are grown and in love, black female characters are consumed with body-racking pain (see: For Colored Girls, Monster's Ball, Beloved). Caricatures of us usually dim our personal transformation from one moment to the next. On screen, the fullness of black womanhood has been flattened to a one-dimensional trope – she is rarely funny without bitterness, or lonely and sad without letting her emotions bleed into histrionics or melodrama.
Middle of Nowhere stands to change that.
Two recent documentaries, two different coasts, one scary enemy, and hundreds of hours of footage. This is the history and legacy of the AIDS crisis in North America, as told by the cameras and concerned filmmakers who were there.
Polio just got a whole lot sexier! That's because later this month The Sessions, a new film starring the always incredible John Hawkes (and directed by Ben Lewin, who's disabled) will be making the rounds in theaters. I am extremely excited.

Lourdes Portillo has a decades-long film career. Her films, which tend to focus on Chicano and Latino culture and identity, range from realism to avant-garde, fiction to personal narrative, with every kind of genre-bending in between. Portillo continues her work today as a member of Xochitl Productions, a film production and distribution company that expands the dialogue around Latino and Chicano issues and identity. This past June, the Museum of Modern Art presented her work in a retrospective titled La Cineasta Inquisitiva. Here is a video montage Women Make Movies put together of some of her works, including Corpus, Columbus on Trial, Las Madres, and Señorita Extraviada. Even these snippets show the varied style of her work and how she deftly played with and melded genre. Click through for more!

The 1958-59 Topps set contains 66 color standard-size cards of players from the four U.S. based teams. Bilingual backs feature 1957-58 statistics, player biographies and a cartoon information section on the player. The set features the Rookie Card of Bobby Hull. Due to being the last card and subject to wear, as well as being chronically off-center, the Hull card is quite scarce in top grades. Other Rookie Cards include Eddie Shack and Ken Wharram.

text: Marking the writing and directorial debut of Henry LeRoy Finch, Wake revolves around four estranged brothers whose reunion, through no conscious effort of their own, takes place on the eve of their mother's death. Shot entirely on location in Bath, ME, Wake is told from the perspective of Sebastian (Martin Landau), a struggling writer who has been burdened with the care of his rapidly deteriorating mother. Through flashbacks, Sebastian recounts the odd night from beginning to end. There's also Raymond (Blake Gibbons), fresh out of prison and equipped with a mean streak from hell; Kyle (Gale Harold), whose alcoholism resurfaces within hours of being in contact with Raymond; and Jack (John Winthrop Philbrick), who, after being laid off from his job as a security guard is celebrating the best way he knows how: with lots of alcohol and sleazy women. While the party rages downstairs, Sebastian and Kyle sit upstairs fretting over the state of their mother. Ultimately, they reveal a series of secrets that perhaps oughtn't have been shared and the night ends with devastating results. ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi

Donations go toward rescuing and caring for our reptiles and amphibians, and allowing us to educate school children, scout groups, and many other visitors about animals, conservation, and pet care.
With the change of the season quickly approaching, it becomes time for us at the zoo to batten down our hatches in preparation for the greatly feared "winter lull." Even though we are a FABULOUS destination for those looking to escape the winter drab, we still suffer from the respite and could use your help to ensure we can keep our doors open and everyone in residence safe and warm. With that, comes our WINTER IS COMING pledge drive, including several ways to give that may fit your budget and lifestyle.In order to get through the winter, we need your assistance. One way is to pledge $20 a month from October - March to help us keep our doors open. We cannot do this without you and unfortunately our timeline is critical. $120 from each of our supporters will ensure that we can keep food in their stomachs and heat lamps plugged in!
In order to set up reoccurring payments, below select "Other" as your donation amount. This will take to you a PayPal check with an option to make reoccurring payments.
Another way is to contribute directly to our remodelling of Monitor Isle. Winston, Hoku, Akili, Boosa, Gordo, Ariana and Foster would really appreciate some updating to their habitats. Solair's refurbishment went fantastically and we very much desire to plan a renovation for his buddies- but we need some help. Our monetary goal is set for $2,000 in order to commence with transformation, but any little bit helps. With your support, we can provide our feisty and full of life Monitors with an engaging, warm and safe place to live.
We also have a wish list if you'd like to contribute with construction materials directly. You would be able to see materials you have purchased put to use invariably in Monitor Isle.

Is it the consensus around here that this can't be done? I've seen all sorts of fancy ideas for it involving 3 way valves, and having multiple extra pots to store stuff etc but I just don't see why. If you're going to be putzing around with changing the 3-way valves for different flows, then why not just put some sort of camlock fittings on the pump and just switch around where you're pumping? For example, during mash the pump is hooked from the ball valve on the mash tun, to the input part of the HERMS coil. When you're done there you simple move to "outflow" side of the pump to the boil kettle and pump your wort into there. Then batch sparge by pumping the sparge water into the mash-tun, then hook it up to the sparge arm and MLT ball valve for a quick vorlauf (or fly sparge if you want), and back into the boil kettle. Heck, you could even hook it up to your plate chiller if you want. Seems to me that if you're willing to take 5 minutes to hook the pump up to different ports (which takes basically no effort with camlock fittings) then you could easily save $150 on a second pump. Am I missing something here?
My HERMS is a single tier with only one pump. I also don't have any complicated plumbing, just a couple hoses and camlock fittings. It works great for batch sparging. If you want to fly sparge you'll need to put the BK or some other vessel on the ground to collect the runnings during the sparge, and then lift it up before starting the boil.
Well I'm planning on doing 15 gallon batches but I still don't see why I would need two pumps. Why does the BK have to be on the ground when I have a pump.
I was thinking if you had some way to seal the lid on the cooler air tight and you had tubing from the hlt going into the lid to sparge, couldn't you just pump the wort out of the mash tun and the vacuum created would draw the same amount of water back in? That seems too easy and would only use one pump.
Yeah but why not just skip all that absurdity and pump your MLT dry, and then pump your sparge water in from the HLT for a batch sparge? What's the point in complicating things with a vacuum drawn HLT (which wouldn't work with a magnetic drive pump anyways, btw)?
Ok yeah. I've always batch sparged and from what I've read you can achieve the same efficiency with either method so I'm going to stick to that. So the consensus is that a single pump will work as long as I don't mind disconnecting and reconnecting hoses on my system?

Kate Hudson Goes Topless and Talks Family in Glamour
Kate Hudson showed off her fit physique on the cover of Glamour's April issue, which hits newsstands on March 12. She showed skin inside the publication as well and shared that "dancing, Pilates, and running after Bing" keep her in shape. Kate talked more about her boys, who she's been traveling with lately, and explained the reasons behind her desire to act with director Mira Nair. Kate will be back on the big screen later this year in Mira's The Reluctant Fundamentalist, but first she'll release her capsule collection for Ann Taylor. Here's more from Kate Hudson in Glamour:
- On what she's reluctant about: "Not much! If I think about my life, I'm not reluctant about taking chances. I'm definitely not reluctant about relationships."
- On her sons: "He's [Bingham's] sprinting! And he's got a natural mullet, which I'm cutting soon. It's growing only in the back, so we in the family say he takes after my Gogie — you know, Kurt [Russell] — because Kurt was a mullet guy in the eighties. Bing's been singing too. He loves music. And Ryder is the coolest cat — an amazing big brother, so patient and tolerant. Bing pulls his hair, and Ryder just laughs. He's such a good person. I couldn't be a prouder mommy."
- On choosing to act: "There's a misconception that if you come from famous parents, you're seeking fame for the sake of fame. I see it as the opposite: Growing up with parents who were in the spotlight — it was almost like, Wow, if I didn't love to create characters, I would run as far away from fame as I could get. But I love performing."

Narciso Rodriguez Spring 2013 | Runway
Narciso Rodriguez Spring 2013
When Narciso Rodriguez said his Spring 2013 show would start at 8 p.m. Tuesday night, he meant it. While other designers can't manage to get their shows going until 20 or 30 minutes after their scheduled start times, Rodriguez brought the lights down and turned the music up in his show space at 8:06 — just as a final group of attendees rushed into the room.
Perhaps that urgency stemmed from all the new statements Rodriguez had to make with this show. He's never been the kind of designer who needed decorations, but this season's garments featured laminated wood paillettes that formed shimmering floral patterns on dresses and slouchy t-shirts. Rodriguez also played with color in a way he hasn't in the past. The orange tones he employed for Fall 2012 came back for Spring and breathed fire into a few garments, but those pieces were made to stand in line with a rainbow of teal, green, and pink — in addition to the ever-present black and white the designer relies on.
The clothes themselves subscribed to his longstanding love affair with the bias cut. Jackets without closures looked fresh, but a selection of nearly-sheer white dresses that featured panels of pink or black fabric displayed Rodriguez's mastery of the technique.

Hi, all.
I'm ordering a fixture from Schoolhouse Electric and I'm wondering if there's a rule of thumb a/f/a what the distance should be between, say, the kitchen tabletop and the fixture/light. I have fairly low ceilings and I want to be careful to to hang them too low, but I also want enough light for reading, etc. |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by texasredhead (My Page) on Sat, Jan 17, 09 at 10:21
A good rule of thumb is to hang a fixture 30" above a table surface. |
What is the rule of thumb for the chandelier hanging height in a room? Let's say for example my ceiling height is 14'. This chandelier will be in the center of a room 16'x 20'. I am just not sure how high off the floor the bottom of the chandelier should be. |
I posted the same question about a month ago in home decorating. I had a very detailed answer for different locations, do a seach called chandeliar height over table. My fixture is 41" down from the ceiling, with just under 8' ceiling. This is what the electrician recommend. Before the table in though it looked funny, but after table went in looks good. |
- Posted by debbie_2008 (My Page) on Sat, Feb 7, 09 at 0:27
30 to 34 inches above the table....if not over a table approximately 6'6" so it can be walked under. Of course that would not apply if the fixture is installed in a 2 story area such as a foyer. Most tables are around 30.5 inches from the floor (not talking Pub style)...so at least 60.5 inches from the floor, would be a good starting point. It is easy enough to shorten it later if need be. Not so easy to lengthen. |

I'm not a pro so work with me. I decided to re-paint 2 wood rocking chairs for the front porch. They were originally painted white (latex) but it's been almost 10 years and were beginning to look bad. Since I also have a cast aluminum bench out there that has a very dark blue, nearly black color and I like the way it looks, I decided to paint the chairs the same color. I bought Glidden High Endurance Paint & Primer (exterior) Semi-gloss in the Admiral Blue. The color is gorgeous, exactly what I wanted. But I wound up putting 3 coats on and thought it looked great but the lighting was getting low. Now in better light I am still seeing streaks of the original white paint. I thought since it said there was a primer in the paint this would not be an issue. Do they not put opaque pigments in it since they are calling it a primer? I'm not a pro at paint but I do use Artist's paints and I do know that in Artist's paints there are transparent paints and opaque paints. Well, anyway, I'm going to keep trying to cover this but what should I have done? This color is great I would hate to have to completely redo it with another product. |
Follow-Up Postings:
It's just a poor covering color and you are going over white. It has nothing to do with primer really. The paint and primer in one gimmick that all paint manufacturers are using this days is a lie. There isn't primer in there and even if there was, it wouldn't help with anything. It's just another way to say that the paint is self priming which all paints are anyway. The only thing you could have done is prime with a real primer tinted towards the color of your topcoat but what you are doing is just fine also. Some colors don't cover white in two coats....sometimes it takes three or more. |
I've searched this problem out and evidently I'm not the only one. I finally gave them both the 4th overall coat and even went back and hit some places again. Overall they look great but if you get up close and really inspect it's not perfect, I'll just have to deal with it. But was wondering if I did something wrong for the next time, hopefully not for at least another 10 years! |
I don't care WHAT the paint says on the can!! * I wouldn't have let you out of the store without a GRAY-primer! >>> Some companies were sending-out new can-wrappers to replace their existing "old" wrappers. And...Voila! Now it's "Paint & primer in One"!!!! (and technically...there is really NO SUCH thing as "Primer-in-the-paint!) Faron |
One of my favorite GW Paint Quotes from Faron: Primer/paint combo advertising is in principle the same as saying 'Try our new Cake & Frosting in one!' ~Faron J. |

Absolutely. You 'paint guys' on this forum are legend. I made sure of that. ;) |
- Posted by tuesday_2008 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 27, 14 at 12:49
I ALWAYS, ALWAYS appreciate the advice of the pros on her like Paintguy, Funcolors, and Faron, but I just have to share an awesome little paint recommended by me, a DIY'r. Rustoleum American Accents is an AWESOME paint for wooden indoor or outdoor furniture. I painted a small chair black over old red paint - 1 coat. I painted a wooden trash can cover red over stain - 1 coat. I painted an old work table/bench that came from an old post office from the 40's - 1 coat, black over old chippy paint sanded down.. They turned out great. But I used Zinzzer 123 primer under all these projects. And to be honest, even though it is recommended for outside, I have never actually had any of my projects exposed to the outside so can't vouch for that. The one bench has wintered in an unheated garage. It would definitely be my go-to for outdoor furniture. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Rustoleum American Accents
@tuesday that's what is so great about this forum, you can stop by and get input from pro's and DIYers with success stories... and sometimes not so successful stories. And we can't forget to add ChrisN and Brushworks to that list. ;) |
- Posted by christophern (My Page) on Fri, Jun 27, 14 at 17:37
thanks for that! |
- Posted by tuesday_2008 (My Page) on Sat, Jun 28, 14 at 23:02
Absolutely...must not leave those two guys out! Love Faron's quote! |
Its good to know the primer story. I bought behr pĂĄp and used it on facia that was peeling. I was very happy with its performance. A touch up second coat did the trick. |

Reviews for Favorite Hamburger Stew
Sort By :
"Great recipe. I added garlic powder,beef consume, and about 2 tablespoons of chili mix. It was superb."
"This was easy to make and made quite a bit which was a nice way to stretch the dollar. I did make a couple of changes after reading the reviews. I used diced tomatoes with green chiles, added a clove of minced garlic, 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper for added zip and used beef stock instead of water. I would definitely make this again."
"After reading existing reviews, here's what I did to boost the flavor: used 2 cups reduced sodium beef broth instead of water, used 2 cans of fire roasted diced tomatoes (out of the 4 cans), 1/2 Tablespoon of salt (not additional but was trying to watch sodium), 1 Tablespoon of pepper, 4 teaspoons of Savory, and 5 cloves of minced garlic. Also topped it with parmesan cheese before serving. I had to cook it much longer than the recipe stated to get the veggies tender enough. I think it would do best in the crock pot - cooking the beef, onions, & minced garlic, then dumping that along with everything else into the crock pot and cooking on low for 3-4 hours. Then back into the dutch oven or on high in the crock pot (depending on time frame) to cook until thickened. I got just under 5 batches and was really pleased with the flavor and for having 4 additional dinners in my freezer! Quart-sized mason jars are perfect for freezing the extra batches. One of my new favorite comfort recipes."
"Very bland. It definitely needs some seasoning."
"This is my new favorite recipe! In addition to this recipe, I added one can of green beans, one can of corn, 2 cups beef bouillon, one bay leaf, 1 tsp. minced garlic, garlic salt, and I cut down 1/2 of celery and also chopped up celery leaves. Total perfection!"

Pivos Technology Group, Inc., a global pioneer in media peripherals and embedded technologies today announced the availability of the highly anticipated XBMC test-build for the XIOS DS Media Play.
As the official developer sponsor for XBMC, Pivos has made a splash in the home media space last week with the soon to be release XBMC Media Center add-on for its Android 4.0 powered XIOS DS Media Play. The highly anticipated add-on is a result of an extended joint development between the two companies.

"Our development effort on XBMC had yielded far more impressive results on our hardware platform. By engaging the open source community and sponsoring their effort can help continue expanding the possibilities."
The Pivos XIOS DS is world's first Android based media center device supporting XBMC. The combination of the two makes it one of the most powerful media center available to market. Developed specifically for XIOS DS's, the add-on will be featuring full hardware video and audio acceleration with support of all popular video and audio playbacks.

The primary purpose of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) Building Loan Program is to facilitate the continued growth of member congregations. The program provides affordable financing for three types of building projects:
Because the program is not intended to replace local financing options, congregations are encouraged to meet with local bankers and seek the most competitive financing for their project. For guidance on how to negotiate with bankers, see Beyond Fundraising, written by Wayne Clark. Chapter nine is titled "Debt is More Than a Four-Letter Word" and speaks to the issue of obtaining financing.
The UUA makes commitments for market rate loans from $50,000 to $900,000. The interest rate is set at the time of closing and will be the greater of (i) 5.00% or (ii) the five-year Treasuries plus three-percent.
Congregations are required to be Annual Program Fund (APF) Fair-Share members at the time of application. They must also retain Fair-Share status throughout the life of the loan. Fair-Share records are reviewed annually. If a congregation fails to pay its full Fair-Share to their district and to the UUA, the interest rate is increased by two-percent for the following fiscal year. This is not to be viewed as a payment in lieu of APF dues. The interest rate drops back down by two-percent in the fiscal year following their return to Fair-Share status.
There is a $250 application fee, payable when submitting an application. The congregation is charged $2,900 (plus dispersements) for the legal fees incurred by the UUA as part of creating and recording the mortgage. The congregation is also charged one point at the time of closing.
There are three amortization schedules:
NOTE. In each case, the loan is reviewed during the sixth year and the interest rate is adjusted depending upon market conditions.
The program does not offer short-term construction loans.
Sample language for a congregational vote:
The Congregation hereby votes to borrow from the Unitarian Universalist Association (the "Association") a sum not to exceed _____[INSERT DOLLAR AMOUNT] to be paid in or within five (5) years, said loan to be secured by a right of reverter in the Congregation's property, a mortgage, and/or other such security interests as the Association may require in connection with said loan, and shall be upon such other terms and conditions as required by the Association; and
To authorize the President and _____[INSERT TITLE OF ADDITIONAL AUTHORIZED OFFICER] of the Congregation to sign, acknowledge and deliver on behalf of the Congregation any and all documents deemed necessary by them, in their sole discretion, to complete the loan, including, but not limited to a promissory note and a mortgage or deed of trust
The application processing time varies depending upon a number of factors, but each loan is usually processed within 4 to 6 weeks.
Sample language for a reversionary clause:
"In the event of congregational dissolution, all outstanding debts shall be paid. The remaining assets, both real and personal, and including all property heretofore and hereinafter donated to said congregation, shall become the property of the Unitarian Universalist Association, 24 Farnsworth Street, Boston, Massachusetts, or its successor, subject to all applicable laws."
With the prior written approval of the UUA Board of Trustees, the congregation has the option of naming a UUA affiliate organization (such as a district, camp, conference center, or other congregation) as the recipient of the congregation's assets.
The UUA Building Loan Program is made possible in part as a result of generous grants from the Unitarian Universalist Veatch Program at Shelter Rock and gifts from individual donors. The Veatch Program promotes the growth of Unitarian Universalist congregations through its support of this UUA program. Please join us in expressing gratitude for their commitment and generosity. Please acknowledge them wherever appropriate in all printed materials.

Linus and his Merry Men (aka H4)
Flawed. Read first. (63 comments)
Argument from authority. And anyway, these were people living in the early post-revolutionary USA, who had, a bit more than a decade before, fought a war against one of the world's biggest superpowers.
People here in this thread are not going into some very important issues about guns. Reading this, it's like if guns were the product of some domestically grown plant or whatever. The truth is, guns are built by big companies for a profit. For a profit means they are willing to sell to almost anyone. For example, to third world dictatorial goverments that use them to arm death squads against peasants. In fact, the US government has been this whole century heavily involved in that (think El Salvador, Guatemala, Indonesia and others, armed by the US).
I think most USians have never seen armed official repression first hand. I for one, have luckily only had a really slight taste of it, which involved no shooting, just sharpshooters aiming rifles from helicopters at unarmed students for no good reason; just to make a show of force, film the whole thing, edit it, and make some propaganda about "students attacking our democratic ideals". Political persecution, that's it. (The pro-statehood party in Puerto Rico has a long history of political persecution against independentists. Kidnapping, murder, infilitration, and public massacres in my university included).
The point being, it's easy to defend the right of USians (and conveniently ignoring the rest of the world) to bear arms (and therefore defending the arms industry) while sitting comfortable in front of a computer, reading
Just thinking about the immediate issue of 'self-defense' is failing to grasp the big picture, where a few privileged few who enjoy huge power, which the people did not appoint to, benefit from all this misery. Think Indonesia and Guatemala again: governmental death squads, armed by the US, massacre people to defend the interests of huge corporations.
I figure I'm just ranting by now. So I'll come to a close. The best reasons for opposing arms are, IMHO, antimilitarism and pacifism in general. This does not mean opposing the right to defend oneself against criminal aggression in the USA; it means opposing the purported right of a select, non-elected few to profit from widespread misery, all over the world.

"The SciFi is hit-or-miss, mainly miss"
The Concept. Most of the authors involved are well known and I like their other books. So they pick a first line of some other novel to base their short piece on. Sounded interesting with an interesting group of authors, and the narrators looked good, too. Only about half of the stories are SciFi. Well, written stories, but uninteresting to me. If I wanted to read about 1920's Chicago or prewar Germany, I would look in period fiction. I am not saying this is bad writing, just not Sci-Fi.
I won't be buying any more with this format, but these are great authors, so yes. BTW, the listen button just gave too little information on this book to make a decision.
Narration was fine, though it was WIL WHEATON that mislead me. ("WIL WHEATON!" shouted like Sheldon on TBBT.) I love his narration and I probably wouldn't have bought it if his name hadn't been on there with Resnick and several others. WIL WHEATON!
I am a pretty hard core Sci-Fi reader. So these shorts that had fantasy, period fiction, with a touch of real science fiction just didn't do it for me. I can tell you that most of the writing was good, though I didn't make it all the way through the book. So take my rating stars based on your leanings.
"A good anti-hero book"
An anti-hero is forged by hubris and by corporate greed and power mongering. The main character goes on to try to be a poor man's super villain. He does OK and a readable, fun book is created. As always this particular narrator does a great job. This isn't a book that will absorb your every moment, but it's a great book to have around when you want to have some fun.
"Scalzi and Wheaton, what else can I say?"
Scalzi writing and Wheaton's narration. Scalzi can draw characters that are "3D". They even talk in clichés when the characters SHOULD be using those clichés. I do think we connect with writers and Scalzi is one of mine. His characters can be funny, serious, scared, alien, or human and they are always believable to me. Bastard's got my number.
Scalzi makes all his characters interesting. Even the bad guys are interesting. I can't pick one so Sean and Van, the main character and his partner.
Wheaton as a narrator is great at an art that is FAR harder than JUST acting. With a slight change in voice he gives me clear cues who is talking and they are consistent. There are few, if any, times I become aware of him as narrator. The story unfolds in my mind with ease. Females sound female without squeaky voices. Older people sound older without just sounding all one age. Men sound like men. Each character is each character. I have bought every Wheaton book, though I did return on because he was only in one story out of many. Audible has several gem narrators and Wheaton is one of that pantheon and I do think narration is a far harder art than acting.
Yes, though it is 10 hours. The other version is 11, can't wait to find out why. I listened as much as I could at a time and finished it in two day.
It's a combination of two great artists.
"Standard Sci-Fi Thriller, poorly written & voiced"
First, let me say, I allow for authors learning their trade, so I will not be sarcastic here. This book would gain much from any editing, but someone other than the author. The number of redundant statements is voluminous. The author mistook restating things like "if someone walked in now, it was the end..." She restated this in 6 sentences in a 8 sentence paragraph. In fact redundancy was a redundant theme. I think the writer thought that be restating the obvious she could intensify the feelings she was trying to describe, but instead it was distracting.The overall emotionality played out at a 4th grade level, also. The main character was a long-time job-only geek, whose beauty is without equal. She meets a sensitive, emotionally-connected, handsome multibillionaire. They both fall in love in about, oh, 3 hours book time. A sex scene is included, but it turns out to be formulaic. Every character other than the main character was a cardboard cut out. No depth other that stereotypical males. The main character's best friend was killed but had no more important that a balloon popping because she died just as we learned they were best friends. AND then the main character gets all whiney blaming herself for something she had no idea could happen with it did. In other words, the author wanted a brooding, complex character and had no idea how to get there without just saying, "hey, this is an intense, brooding character who takes everything on herself." Oh, turns out her boyfriend of 24 hours is also an intense, brooding male with a heart of gold.The last issue in the writing was the constant use of clichés. Some clichés can add to the sense that characters are real, however combined with overly formal language, or Yoda Speak, the effect is weakened. Using too many clichés too often gets annoying.As I said, a good, tough editor would help immeasurably.
Only if it was free and only to see if she has improved her writing. A ten minute free listen on Audible would be enough to check that out. BUT NO, not without that listen. I could not complete the last 2 hours and intend to return it.
Oh, god, yes. First, YOU can NOT emphasize EVERY other WORD. When YOU do EMPHASIZE every OTHER word, THE listerner IS continuously THROWN off THE structure OF the SENTENCE and THE point OF the SENTENCE. This form of reading does not allow for subtle character moves, where the narrator shifts from one character to another with subtle shift of tone and speeds. I had to work hard much of the time to figure out who was saying what in scenes where several characters where involved. The producer of this audio book should be told to listen to some of the better narrators and understand what good readings sound like. Sometimes the changes in character the narrator tried to crate could be hilarious. I had to replay the section after I got over my tendency to laugh. I could hear from time to time that this narrator could be a decent reader, but they need careful guidance from a good producer. The net effect was that I was too aware of the narrator and his quirks and that distracted me from the story.
Disappointment, mainly.
The writer also needs to do some basic research into the sciences. The diabolical, evil mastermind billionaire, which she used in her description, was going to substitute a body for the main character after the main character is thought dead... like DNA or finger prints is not known in the future? A single person's apartment is a wealth of DNA and finger prints. So the diabolical evil genius' plan would fall apart in about 15 minutes. A suspense/crime Sci-Fi writer has to understand all of this.
"US Navy SEALs in Space on an Alien Ship"
Probably not, I think I have heard all the detail and nuance that exists in the book.
I can't say I learned enough about any character that I have a favorite. The main character the SEAL officer who later becomes a ship commander is annoyingly obtuse sometimes. Other characters don't get as much development as they need. In short he could have added at least 2 hours to shore up the lack of character development. HOWEVER, the characters were believable in most cases and likeable if they weren't acting stupid to bring about a problem too quickly.
He has most of the basics I like. When he is reading his timing seems natural and doesn't see too jerky or so smooth I don't know where the sentences go. He had good character separation, that slight tone change that stands out consistently for a character without too much jarring, with two notable exceptions, the rhino guys and Molly,"the Dad's got to have something to live for" daughter. Both parts he had a good handle on how he wanted to play the character but he overdid the effect. Sometimes he over did them to the point of annoyance. From my point of view a hint of a voice consistent voice change is enough. I am not looking for the different voices of cartoons. But overall I was pleased.
No extreme reactions.
The author will either mature in his storytelling in that he will give us the background we need to truly relate to the characters, or he will become unreadable. The SEAL officer who is the main character is reacting to a civil medical person from another planet. Okay, interesting, but after a while the relationship hasn't developed or changed and the off-worlder starts to become a whiner and the main character is in waaay too much denial about what is going on. Little things that could have added, when the now ship commander says he is going to meet with his whole staff of mostly aliens, we never learn much about that at all, the main stage setting. We need to know these representatives to finally care if the interplanetary good guys are worth hoping they will survive. Finally, author uses the commander's stupidity several time in both books and it gets old. One more than one occasion the commander Is out acting like a ground pounder instead of captain of the last hope of humanity, oh, like Captain "tear my shirt" Kirk. So he is out in some puzzling situation with a bunch of SEALs with him and they all get so interested in one single thing, none of them notice some evil this way comes, and the team is caught totally off guard. That's not going to happen in a professionally trained unit. Someone will always be monitoring their helmet HUDs, always!
I wouldn't pay full price, but the $7.95 was fine. I don't mind supporting beginning authors who have the basics to be decent writers.
"Wakes up my interest"
The main character didn't just run around acting silly in a very bad situation. He thought. He wasn't perfect, but he thought. He added a crew that you grew to like.
When he decides he has to share the information he has with the rest of the solar system.
Jim Holden is the main character. If you don't like him you won't like the book.
No extremes. Just good solid story telling with a great performance to boot
The narrator has the ability to separate his narration from the characters. He has a sense of timing and import. He does not over act. He does not make me aware of him. I can instantly tell the different characters apart and they don't all sound the same. Twenty year olds sound twenty and forty year olds sound forty.
"Ringo Goes Political"
First, let me say, I have read about everything Ringo has written and I will try his next book. BUT having said that, if you wanted to read a SciFi and not a treatise on how Red states are better than Blue states, don't bother. It's not really SciFi anyway, but I can get into a decent apocalypse/survival book from time-to-time, but the book doesn't really start until Book 2 / chapter 7, up until then it's Ringo's political rantings.
About 60% of it is political ramblings. All media is anti army, except Fox. Red States are gooder and Blue states can't find their own asses. (Of course, he ignores the fact that Blue states economically outperform Red states hands down. But hey, why let reality get into an apocalypse/survival book.)
Ringo has the ability to bring a soldier's life and risks alive and he does this in a scene where two scout strykers hit a pre-battle rant by a local leader. The whole chapter is classic Ringo and one of the reasons I listened to the whole thing even though I kept flipping forward as he started a rant. I was hoping to find more, and there were more small little bits of writing, but not much.
If they left out his ranting scenes, I could appreciate the main character and the men who followed him.
I also listened to the whole thing, minus the ranty parts, was the narrator. I am looking for more of his books. I have done this with three other narrators. This would have been a solid one or two if it hadn't been for the narrator!
"8th Grade Writing by an Accomplished Writer"
I would try another Dietz book, but no fiction by Quinn ever again.
Dietz's writing in this resembles his other books sometimes, but most times you get the idea that he wrote this when he was in 8th grade. The descriptions of the main characters are stereotyped shells as opposed to his characters in the Legion of the Damned series. It was almost as if this book was written as a satire of his other books or novice author wrote it in Dietz's "style" and they slapped the Dietz name on it.I have read or listened to almost all of William C. Dietz books and I had to stop listening to this on about half way through. I bought this on the strength of his name alone. I wish I had read the Amazon book reviews on the written version first.I am as disappointed as a long term reader can be.
Almost anyone else, but Donald Coren was fine in Dietz's other books. I least I could track the plot and not have to stop and start the player all the time.
It completed my library of Dietz books. I just wish he hadn't wrote it, or if he was going to in any case, had written it with his normal care.It also taught me to read other site's reviews of the written form of the book even if the author is one of your favorites.
If you enjoy William C. Dietz, don't buy this book.
"The Start of a Great Series"
Yes, because hearing the narrator pronounce the names of the alien language is helpful. I also find that Cherryh can bog down just a bit in detail in the written word, but for some reason it isn't as distracting in the audio edition. Mind you, this is somewhat necessary during the first book since she is introducing a whole new world with the idea of what a alien-on-alien translation would be like.
When Bren realizes he has to split from his humankind in order to protect those same people. Sometimes he gets a bit pedantic or monotonous when Cherryh is getting just a bit lost in detail. This can be distracting. I get the feeling he want to get on to the next bit.
Sometimes he leaves me breathless running through passages, especially near the beginning when we are hearing new Atevi words for the first time.
Shortly after an attempted assassination of Bren, the main human character through out the series, realizes how alone he is and starts to hold on to Banachi and Jago. You can feel the building, well Bren and Cherryh would say NOT, trust-thing.
You have to listen carefully to the beginning of the book. There is a lot of history that is used later in this book and the following books. If you can keep it all balanced, it is a rich environment with building, believable relationships.
"Great Author, Solid Science Fiction"
Cyteen won multiple award when it came out because it explored the future of a humanity that could shape itself and how the limits of the universe, time, and distance would change humanity. It is a great and DEEP novel.
Having said this, I don't consider it her best work. The book lumbers through detail and the first third of the book has not real main character, until the woman who dies at the beginning starts to grow up. To me Cyteen is not as tightly written as Cherryh's later work. But Cyteen does a good job of exploring the effects of genetics, environmental control, and human evolutional limitations.
This book is not among my top 10 audio books, though it was an thought provoking book. I am glad I listened to it.
I love C. J. Cherryh books. I wish they had started with any of her other series like the Chanur and Foreigner series. I love her exploration of human/alien relations.
When you realize the Hindu religion may have been truly started with control of human genetics and rebuild of a life.
I liked the use of the male voice in a dry archivist manner. Those passages were a more academic exposure to the books underlying theme. However, the author and original editors should have shortened and tightened these passages. BUT Jonathan's voice acting went well with the material.
Gabra did better with the women's voices. The main male character sounded too whiney in the voice she gave him. It portrayed him more as a childish whiner than as a troubled "special". But I liked her voice very much and would love to here it in other strong female lead sci fi. I loved her portrayal of the main female older self.
No. It was too slow in the first third and too long at 36 hours.
If you are not one to explore deep subjects, then avoid this book. If you want to hear thoughts on a very deep subject we are just starting into, this is a good listen, not a great one, but solid.

Local beekeepers claim their yearly loss rates within their bee populations has gone from an average of 10% per year to 30% per year over the last 10 years, though they are unsure whether the cause lies with a mite and a virus it might be spreading or with the increased use of certain pesticides by local farmers.
